More and more educators are using music and movement to help struggling students with academic content. For instance, both math and reading are utilized in playing and creating music. Also consider that one important characteristic of an effective after school program involves offering academic help to students that is different from what they receive in their regular classroom program. This training incorporates a variety of resources and techniques to show teachers how to use strategies that will help students learn academic content with music and movement so they make connections and remember higher level concepts. If you desire, our trainer can also introduce and enhance your skills, resources, and knowledge for utilizing music therapy to change inappropriate behavior or for special education programs.
English language acquisition is very important for our second language learners. This workshop is custom designed to help teachers develop effective strategies for whatever grade level or academic subject they are teaching. A second language cannot be drilled into the minds of students; it must be acquired through structured activities that take place in authentic classroom and other settings. During this workshop, our trainer will work with your teachers to help them properly build language acquisition into every lesson they teach.
